An IT firm has relaunched following the recent merger of two businesses.
Solihull-based Technology x People, known as TXP, is the result of the merger of digital services provider Jumar and IT resourcing firm Concept.
Backed by private equity house Aliter Capital, TXP will offer services such as IT consultancy, technology development and people resourcing.
Alongside its head office in Marston Green, it also has bases in Dudley, Milton Keynes and London, employing 180 staff.
It said it now planned to double in size over the next three years via both growth and acquisitions and create around 100 jobs in the West Midlands.

Chief executive John Antunes said: "There's a significant opportunity to support mid-sized organisations across financial services, healthcare, retail and the public sector whose internal IT teams may not have the resources or some of the specialist skillsets to drive the growth and innovation they need.
"This gap isn't being addressed by the traditional larger systems integrators and yet it's critically important for mid-sized organisations to avoid a piecemeal approach to business modernisation.
"TXP strives to solve their most challenging problems with a joined-up approach to technology and people."
TXP has also completed its first acquisition under the new group structure, buying Newcastle-based Metatech which provides IT automation services.
The business supports clients across the public sector and in fields such as financial services, insurance and healthcare.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Mr Antunes said: "This acquisition comes at an ideal time for both businesses.
"We know the team at Metatech very well and so we know how much this deal will broaden TXP's existing credentials, adding unique automated solutions, scarce technical skillsets, knowledge and experience.
"Moving forward, this specialist know-how will be a vital element in delivering significant pipeline projects, as well as generating a wealth of new business opportunities."
Metatech's director Andy Scott is remaining with the business following the deal.
